:I you will never see me draw Pinkie because I strongly dislike her and I will RARELY draw Luna alone. Most of my drawings of Luna will have Celestia. Celestia in my personal opinion is way better than Luna and I think Luna is over glorified :I

Devious Comments

Celestia is my favorite pony by quite a high margin, but Dashie holds a big place in my heart too <3

The only thing is the complete lack of respect for her from the writers. She sort of feels like Spike; just kind of thrown in there when needed. She has SO MUCH potential, but she's never got the chance to be more than just a 2-D character. The reason why she's my favorite is because of the development I've had to hunt for, either from the comics of from headcanons like Lullaby for a Princess (which in my mind is WAY better than what happened).

Another thing that ticks me off is the carelessness in which they execute her little bit of development. In the show, she really got off on the wrong foot. When describing Sombra, she says that he has a heart as black as night. They could have used so many different adjectives, but they chose to use night. And in the Nightmare Moon transformation scene, she showed absolutely no sadness; just anger. That really made me mad that they wouldn't pay attention to those things.

Tia is a beautiful character, but she needs more development and attention to make her really shine ^-^

Technically if Celestia did all the hero work and constantly saved people Twilight would have to be a side character

I could say the same for luna as you could sau for Celestia What has Luna done to save Equestria? Sure she hasn't sent people out like Celestia but at least Celestia is doing something

9 times out of 10 each adventure Twilight was 'sent' to do was to test her strength and continue her training. Celestia was training her to possibly become the next princess

Also, keep in mind Celestia has to raise/set the sun, run Equestria, care for her subjects all while being fair, calm and training Twilight. She's a very busy person and has a lot of pressure on her shoulders and sacrifies a lot for her subject

I would say Luna does nothing and just makes everything worse because of Nighmare Moon but, just like Celestia, the issue is blameless and she doesn't get enough screen time to be blamed for 'not doing anything to save her people'

The main characters in the show are of course, the Mane Six, Twilight being the leader. I don't consider that an excuse to undermine Celestia or say she is a lazy queen, because she isn't. She just hasn't had much air time. Why? Because once again she isn't a main character

The point of the statement I made is that Celestia doesn't get enough credit at all. Luna, Derpy, Pinkie, AppleJack, Dr.Hooves and all the other super minor background characters have more story than the more important characters (well Luna is very important)

I like Luna but I dislike the fandom acting as if she is some hero when she has done nothing to save anyone? She has only saved them from herself, causing more problems because of her insecurities, but I suppose thats blameless as well

We don't see Celestia putting her subjects in peril like Luna has. We don't see her save them because she isn't a main character and has her own duties

Celestia is more noble and considerate than Luna in my personal opinion but of course thats debatable

I understand your opinion, but if Celestia has such importance, then why does she have such little screentime? Her powers are too vast for her to rarely be acknowledged, thus she is slightly Mary Sue.

Also, the fandom has done plenty for Celestia. She's acknowledged more than some of the Mane 6, and is growing popular for one main reason. She's overpowered. I know others agree with that statement. If Celestia deserves more acknowledgment, why is she so minor to the plot with powers too big for her small character? She deserves about as much acknowledgement as the minor background character she is. The only reason anybody cares for her is her status and magic.

Well thats the point of this statement and simply an opinion Celestia needs more screentime

AlsoIf Celestia were 'mary sue' or 'over powered' why was she defeated by Crysalis?

She's not Over powered, shes just not stronger than loveWhich is a powerful statement. Love rules all

And as for her not getting screentime I ask this question too and that question is something we should ask the writers

I don't really see much aknowlegement at all? I see much much more luna love than love for celestia Thats just what I see thoughRemember this is an opinion dear Not a challenge You can like and disklike what you want But I can do the same

Don't get me wrong now I like Luna I love her actually but I love Celestia even more because she's a true queen and rulerShe puts her people above and beyond her problems and feelings It was very noble of her to sacrifice her own feelings and banish her sister, who she loved and caref for, just to protect her people

Then now she has to raise/set the moon and sun, while also running the whole country while maintaining a proud and kind face The Summer Solstice cerimony is something she Cannonly said she disliked because it was the day she banished her sister BUT she still smiled and went to each one, just for the pleasure of her subjects

Celestia doesn't sit on her rump and do nothing in Cannon They just don't show anything about her :I How do we know she does nothing when we don't see her? She does however save Equestria at LEAST once from nightmare moon (banishing her sis to the moon)

Annnd this banishing was what, over 1000 years ago? She lost to Chrysalis, she simply sent Twi off to defeat Discord, even when we know Alicorns are freakishly powerful, she didn't even bother to go to the Crystal Empire herself when Sombra came back (even though she defeated him the first time...)

They should write Tia very different. Seriously. I'd love to have a couple episodes about her.

:I remember Celestia has a very important job She runs all of equestria Not to mention the power of Love is the most powerful thing (a point the writers were putting out) hence why celestia couldn't defeat her Not to mention the Crystal Empire was a test for Twilight, a blossoming Princess.

Also, she couldn't hold the sun and moon forever and she did want to see her sister again. Celestia banished her in the hopes that when she returned she would be able to turn luna around and fix her (probably what she was training Twilight for is what I was theorizing)

As for discord I assume it was also another test for Twilight or Celestia knew that she could defeat him

i theorize Celestia knew and planned Twilight becoming a Princess. She did in fact, give her the wings herself. So, if an Alicorn has the power to make a pony an alicorn who's to say she didn't plan all of this? Celestia did send Twilight to Ponyville to make friends after all. And what a good place to start for the princess of friendship. And not to mention Celestia did know that Luna would return, but she also knew Twilight would find out about it and she believed that Twilight would find the elements of harmony (something only a Princess or a 'trained princess' would be able to find, acsess and use ) and defeat Nightmare moon.

Also this comment is probably all over the place because I'm sick butI'm pretty sure the Elements of Harmony is the most powerful magic known, more powerful than love and the sun (aka Celestia)

One, it's more than just the wings that make an Alicorn. Any old unicorn could have wings but still not have the raw power shown in an Alicorn. So Celestia giving Twi wings really was not that impressive.

And every dang disaster that happens in Equestria shouldn't all be Twilight's tests. I think it was poor writing that Celestia just sent her into danger every other episode with basically no regard for her safety.

I'm not saying I hate Celestia. In fact, I'm pretty fond of her. I'm just saying that the writers didn't do a very good job developing her character. They've basically underscored her, just tossed her to the curb with all the other side characters. If she rules all of Equestria, why do we never get to see any of that? It irritates me. I think they should really make a movie (or at the very least an episode) about her backstory.

If we get so much of Twilight, can't we get some of Celestia? the most interesting scene we've gotten so far was that argument with Luna in Slice of Life! The most charactarization I've seen is when she told Twilight about how she used to feel about the Summer Sun Celebration in the beginning of Season Four.

Basically, all I'm saying is that Celestia has not been developed and therefore she has virtually no character in the show.

-simply having wings and a horn actually does mean that the pony in question has Alicorn powers, but like all powers they aren't equal. However Alicorn magic is clearly superior to normal magic If Celestia gave her wings maybe its because Twilight already possessed the powers to be an alicorn, just lacked wings But as soon as she gets wings and a horn she is a princess and still very powerfull

My argument is weak though because Sunset Shimmer and that other horse with the 'Equality' obsession is in fact more powerful than Twilight :/

However- TRAINING Twilight and prepairing her for the responsiblity of being a princess is pretty impressive to me Not just giving her wings but knowing she needed/deserved them Idk its just a theory

I do agree though that Celestia needs much more screen time and character development

I tend to not take comics into consideration because i'm not interested in them v-v

I'm talking about general artwork. The fandom can get pretty toxic towards Celestia and over glorifies Luna. I'm talking about how people blame Celestia for Luna's banishing. The situation is blameless.

Ah yes v-v thats perfectly fine! <3 I rather like Rarity <3 I just hope this status update doesn't come across as rude or something

I don't minf people liking Pinkie or LunaI just think other ponies need more recognition <3

Oh! I had forgotten about Cadence! She does need more recognition. I get a little annoyed with people who gripe about her design (and Flurry Heart's design v-v ) the show is directed to a family audience, meaning childeren as well as adults, you have to keep that in mind. The design is simply kid friendly! Its the personality people should look at
